Why

If you don’t bother to take the time,
To express your thoughts in rhyme,
The chances are awfully good,
You’ve not thought as much as you should.
Rhymes are fun and set the stage right,
Like lovers undressing before a fight…

Do we have what it takes?

I have to agree something must be done

Because our debt burden is just no fun.

Now is the time to make some concessions

And thoughtful people would have some sessions

Discussing a way to get this unstucked.

So yeah, I guess we’re…

Economic Forum Indeed

In Davos they deal with global matters

And leave some personal lives in tatters

As it would seem that in this august place

The oldest profession still runs apace!

Markets are markets and should be set free…

But you’d think some discretion would be key.

Stage of Aquarius

Back in the days of free love and long hair

There was little chance that people would care

About the potential for business to

Be a force for good and maybe help you.

Now it’s the most trusted group of them all!

Will it rise to the challenge of this call?

Independents Day

Here’s another sign things might end okay

As more and more folks are starting to say

The two parties are crazy, that’s enough,

It’s time to end all this partisan stuff!

The silent majority should get loud,

It’s the center that draws the biggest crowd.

Dream Weaver

There’s no shortage of awe from MLK

In what he did and what he had to say.

His most famous words were “I have a dream…”

But so many more also reigned supreme.

What might the creative use of time bring?

It’s never the wrong time to do the right thing.

Maybe half full?

Negativity is our default frame

‘Cuz if you aspire to having fame

Then use the Internet for a broadside

To make folks furious or terrified!

Evolution demands we watch for threats

But are things so bad, even with our debts?

In all ways

It is a core function of survival

And in my opinion has no rival

For being the secret of all success…

Or at least properly managing stress.

Yes, both in the body and in the mind

Flexibility just can’t be confined.

Good Grief…

The Left will claim that without any doubt

This case is different, so let’s just chill out.

Perhaps Biden’s response is more mature

But I’m afraid that simply can’t obscure

Trump’s crime is the same, apples to apples…

Ignore that and justice hangs by grapples.

Well done, NY GOP!

Well for sure George Santos will not resign –

It’s his first real job, so he’s feeling fine!

But lo! A miracle has unfolded

Fellow Republicans have now scolded

This fraud of a man and they want him gone!

McCarthy of course still gives it a yawn.

Amidst it all

I have banned Stolichnaya from my life!

In protest of Russia’s Ukrainian strife…

And freely criticize all that they do

In this shameful war that they are up to.

But when it involves rescue missions in space

I wish them success in this special case.
